I am a true lover off Homey. But also critical and have posted some topics about what I don’t like from Homey or what is annoying about customer support. But the newest release off Homey introducing Homey Widgets is just awesome. I absolute love it. Keep up the good work! ---

I’m glad there are widgets now, but I would have prefered if they used the 1x1 icon widget on Android, that way I would have been able to customize my flows in Nova Launcher with icons and group them in folders. Still widgets is awesome, was waiting a long time for that! ---

on my phone (Samsung S6) it is a 1x1 icon ( Favorite Flows 1 x 1 ) ---

There is a difference between a 1x1 widget (what it is now) and a 1x1 icon widget (or shortcut) The main benefit of 1x1 widget is that it would be able to show state, something that would be awesome if it represented a switch allowing me to quickly view state of things . ---

Widget resizing on Android is coming very soon! Beta can already be tested; see screenshot below: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/d/2dcdc40103e9366584c09bbae6d19496bce1dd8f.jpeg) It has not yet arrived (as beta) on my Android phone, but on my iPad an update has already arrived with the above changelog. ---

Yeah, we noticed! ![chrome_2020-03-31_17-52-47](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/9/19f33a0b5194f5875a7537f30e3c293b8f98f3a1.png) ---

Yeah, if you follow all topics or sort on latest additions… I know it’s much asked for, so would only be nice to let people know, isn’t it? 😉 One more addition: noticed that emoticons are now being copied to the widgets as well. Can be of a lot of help too, since you cannot increase the font size for widgets alone on Android… ![SmartSelect_20200331-180926_One UI Home](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/2/82d9080bbb731b40242947f374382cfe2202f67f.jpeg) ---

> [@Henk\_Renting](#): > > so would only be nice to let people know, isn’t it? Ofc m8. It’s just confusing that there are so many topics about just 1 and the same thing: widgets. No offence, just for (new) users it’s hard to find what u need. ---

My best guess would be the latter and ur right: I don’t care and wondering why I am involved in this. Sorry! ---

Come on Homey! You can do this better. Icons where I can choose an icon myself and Widget Sliders for lamps. This way everyone can make a dashboard.
